Gene encoding cytochrome p450 and use thereof

A method for controlling weed noxious to a transgenic plant, comprising treating a field used for cultivating the transgenic plant with at least one inhibitor selected from the group consisting of an acetolactate synthase inhibitor classified as code 2 of Herbicide Resistance Action Committee (HRAC) classifications, a microtubule assembly inhibitor classified as code 3 of HRAC classifications, a photosystem II inhibitor classified as code 6 of HRAC classification, a carotenoid biosynthesis inhibitor in phytoene desaturase (PDS) classified as code 12 of HRAC classifications, a protoporphyrinogen oxidase inhibitor classified as code 14 of HRAC classifications, a dihydropteroate synthase inhibitor classified as code 18 of HRAC classifications, and a 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase inhibitor classified as code 27 of HRAC classifications,

• wherein the transgenic plant comprises an expression vector, and
• wherein the expression vector comprises a cytochrome P450 gene encoding a protein described in any of the following (a) to (c):
• (a) a protein comprising an amino acid sequence of any of SEQ ID NOS:
• 2, 4, 6, and 8;
• (b) a protein comprising an amino acid sequence having 80% or more identity to the amino acid sequence of any of SEQ ID NOS:
• 2, 4, 6, and 8, and having metabolic activity against a microtubule assembly inhibitor classified as code 3 of HRAC classifications, a carotenoid biosynthesis inhibitor in phytoene desaturase (PDS) classified as code 12 of HRAC classifications, a protoporphyrinogen oxidase inhibitor classified as code 14 of HRAC classifications, and a dihydropteroate synthase inhibitor classified as code 18 of HRAC classifications;
• and
• (c) a protein comprising an amino acid sequence encoded by a polynucleotide that hybridizes, under stringent conditions, with a polynucleotide consisting of a nucleotide sequence complementary to a nucleotide sequence of any of SEQ ID NO:
• 1, 3, 5, and 7, and having metabolic activity against a microtubule assembly inhibitor classified as code 3 of HRAC classifications, a carotenoid biosynthesis inhibitor in phytoene desaturase (PDS) classified as code 12 of HRAC classifications, a protoporphyrinogen oxidase inhibitor classified as code 14 of HRAC classifications, and a dihydropteroate synthase inhibitor classified as code 18 of HRAC classifications.
